## Alarms

Fantastical can automatically add an alarm to all of the events you add. There are two alarm settings to provide flexibility: timed events and all-day events.

For example, with timed events, you might want to have your alarms occur an hour before the event, but for all-day events, you might want to be alerted a couple days prior.

To set an alarm:

1. Open Preferences... and select the Alarms tab.
2. Click the pull-down menu next to "alarm" and select the type of alarm you want.
3. Once you select an alarm type, you can customize and set that alarm's options.

If you want alarms to be added to all of your events, you must set both of the alarm settings (timed and all-day).
